The company was failing and I knew the end was near. The entire design department was let go a few weeks earlier and I was assured that this wouldn't happen to me (don't ever believe management when they tell you this. Everyone is expendable).
Well, I was brought into a room and let go the following Monday. The boss even got pissed when he asked me if I would not look for a job for awhile because he "might want to hire me back" and I said "no". Within a few weeks, the office was sold and the rest of the employees were let go.
It took me 2 weeks to figure out an idea for a company and I made my first $50 within a month. This lasted about 2 years and I had to get another job when the business failed. I pivoted that original idea a year later..and I've been doing pretty well running my own business since then (3 years now).
Looks like I'll need to talk with you.. I am laid off two months ago. My current adventure is to get my own, however I am facing some challenges. I would need to tap your brain. Please shoot me a mail .
